Following the [[Gallian Wars]], [[Pictor]] founded a city on the captured fortress. Naming it Coloneia Magnadonium Pictor Princeps or simply Magnadonium, the Great City of the Princeps Pictor. Modern-day Brídhavn would be the center of [[Great Levantine|Great Levantine]] control over Fiannria. This place as a center of administration would continue through the middle ages as the city was renamed Brídhavn in honor of [[St. Bridget the Martyr]] who fought, died, and is buried in the city, eventually becoming an electorate of the [[Holy Levantine Empire]] and the capital of the [[Kingdom of the Culfras]] and the subsequent Capital of the Commonwealth of Fiannria.
